The basis of the present invention is built around the idea of providing a stimulating massage. It is noted that throughout the specification the general invention is referred to as a “vibrator”. This verbiage is chosen as a convenience and not used by way of definition of the device. Other wording that could also be used is: “massager,” “stimulator”, and other names. The term “lubrication” is also used throughout the specification. This term is defined as any type of topical, epidural liquid, including creams, gels, ointments, salves, simple water, or the like that are used to soothe, relax, wet or stimulate the skin, muscles or senses. “Lubrication” would also include any liquid substance that can be applied to the skin to make the surface of the skin slippery.

Regarding FIG. 1, there is illustrated an embodiment representing the generic design of vibrators used in the massage industry. Specifically, the massage device 10 includes a housing 12 that encapsulates all of the relative parts described herein. The housing 12 may include at least two sections, wherein three are illustrated for instructional purposes only; a nose or tip section 14, a middle section 16, and rear section 18, which is the entrance to the vibration cavity 63.

Each section, nose, middle and rear may be divided by any number of means, as illustrated there are circumferential separators 23. These separators are designed to dampen any transference of vibration, from one section to the next. This enables each section to vibrate at a separate rate or none at all.

Referring to FIG. 2, there is a circumferential separation embodiment, which illustrates that the middle separator 23 may be a complete brake 59 between the two separate body pieces (middle 16 and rear 18). Thereby, there would be a coupling in the form of a U-shaped ring 60 that holds the two separate body pieces together by the ends 62 of the U-shape, which would be lodged into grooves 64 that would be located on either section 14 and 16 a short distance from the interface 59 of the two independent sections 16 and 18 (middle and rear). There may be a dampening device 57, in the form of resilient material, placed therebetween the two independent pieces to further the isolation between the sections (rear, middle, and nose).

Referring back to FIG. 1, each section may have identical vibrator 10 features. Specifically, in a feature of one embodiment, there is a known vibration creation motor 24, 26, and 28 positioned in nose 14, middle 16 and rear 18 sections respectively. Thus, the vibrator 10 is designed so that when vibration creation motor 24 is activated, it is intentionally designed to create little effect in the other two sections and have maximal effect in the section where the activated motor is positioned. The vibration motor or mechanism can be cylindrical in shape. Multiple vibration mechanisms may be positioned in sections 14, 16, 18 around the vibrating cavity. The vibration mechanisms may be cylindrical or toroidally shaped. Additionally, the vibrating mechanism can be a motor, a magnetic vibration device or a piezio-electric vibration device or any such device that causes vibration.

Additionally, each vibrator section may have, in one embodiment, Identical lubrication/liquid ports 38, 36 and 34 respectively placed in the nose 14, middle 16 and rear 18 sections.

There is a central control module 70, in one embodiment, positioned at one end of the vibrator device 10 that houses several key elements. For example, there may be a lubricant storage container 50, with an associated lubricant filling tube or port 51, and a respective removable tube plug 19. The plug 19 is designed to be opened to enable a user to refill the lubricant storage container 50, and thereby be replaced to contain the lubricant therein. There may also be a lubricant pump module 66, designed to pump lubricant to the respective lubricant ports 34, 36 and 38, through respective lubricant tubes 54, 56 and 58. There may be a control module 40, designed to control the operation of the lubricant pump module in response to the desires of the user. A skilled artisan of lubricant pump design may provide any number of configurations to accomplish the desired and stated purposes. There may also be a power module 30, designed to provide power to the various modules, motors, controls and such. The power module may be in the form of known batteries, as illustrated, or could be a transformer to receive 110 volt alternating current from a typical electrical plug outlet. Central control section 70 may have a removable cap 20 that may be designed to allow the user access to all or some of the operational elements inside the vibrator 10 as are customary in the industry of hand held electrical appliances.

There is illustrated in FIG. 1, according to another embodiment, an entrance or opening to the vibrating cavity 63, wherein the user may insert the physical extremity of his body to be massaged by vibration and lubrication. The liner of the vibrating cavity 61 may be formed from a soft, compressible material, so as to not scratch or injure the skin or the portion or extremity of the body that is inserted into the vibrating cavity 63. As illustrated in FIG. 1 this liner of the vibrating cavity 61 is a rubberized foam material.

Referring now to FIG. 3, there is illustrated an embodiment of an exterior side view of the vibrator 10. Specifically, there is illustrated one embodiment of the U-shaped coupling 23. There is also illustrated one embodiment of a control panel 80, designed to allow the user to control the various features of the vibrator 10 through a touch panel 80.

FIG. 3 also illustrates one embodiment of the control panel 80. Specifically, in this illustrated embodiment, there is in the left side a touch activated switch for turning on or activating the vibrator, designated by “ON/OFF” 100. There is in the lower middle of the screen a similar switch for activating the lubrication system, designated as “Lube” 86. In this embodiment, touching “Lube” 86 would disperse a small amount of lubrication through the system of ports 34, 36, 38, releasing it into the vibration cavity 64. There is in the right side three touch activated switches, labeled “1” 92, “2” 94, and “3” 96, for activating the vibration control of zones 14, 16, and 18 respectively. There is also illustrated a sliding control switch 90, designed to regulate the amount, intensity, speed of the various features of the vibration and lubrication. The vibration switches, 92, 94, 96 are similarly designed as in the other switches. The section switches are designed to turn on or off the nose 14, middle 16 and rear 18 sections, which are designated as buttons labeled “1” 92, “2” 94, and “3” 96, respectively.

In operation, regarding one embodiment of the illustrated invention, there is an increased flexibility derived from this design. For example, the user would activate the vibrator by pressing the “OFF/ON” 100, switch. After the vibrator has been activated, it is possible to have lubrication emanating from the nose section, and vibration in the middle section. Whereby, the vibration can be increased in the middle section, and the lubrication can be decreased in the rear section after starting a massage session. Specifically, by switching on button “I” 92, then pressing “Lube” 86, lubrication will be emitted from the nose section as long as the lube button is pressed. By pressing button “2” 94, and then pressing ‘Vibrate” 84, and sliding the slide button 90 from the apex to a middle section of the pyramid, you will get the middle section to vibrate at a medium speed.

To activate all features, one skilled in the art will appreciate the ease of the process. For example, by pressing button “I” 92, the nose section 14, then pressing “Lube”, 86 then pressing “Vibrate” 84 and sliding the adjustment switch 90 all the way to the bottom of the pyramid, you will get maximum vibration and one application from the lubrication (one being the times the lubrication button 86 was touched) all in the nose section, and nothing else in any of the other sections. This state of activation will continue until the master “OFF” switch 100 is activated.

In another embodiment, and in operation of the illustrated invention, adjustment of the device 10 is possible during operation. For example, given the same state of operation as described in the previous paragraph, the user may decide that the middle section 16 needs to be vibrating. This is accomplished by pressing button number “2” 94 and pressing “Vibrate” 84, and select a medium level of intensity by touching half way up the pyramid sliding switch 90. Now, two separate sections, nose and middle, are activated with different sets of features and different levels of intensities.

In FIG. 4 there is illustrated another embodiment of the invention, wherein the lubrication/liquid system is dispensed manually. In this embodiment, the focus will be on the newly defined manual dispensing system 110, which includes an end cap 112. In this embodiment the end cap 112 slips over the nose end 114 of the vibrator 10 and is threadly attached 13 to the vibrator housing 12. There is sufficient length in both the threads 13 on the end cap 112 and the vibrator housing 12 to allow the user to adjust the position of the end cap 112. By rotating the end cap clockwise, the end cap moves along a longitudinal axis towards the vibrator housing 13, and conversely by rotating the end cap 112 counterclockwise, the end cap 112 moves away from the vibrator housing 12. As described in previous embodiments, the control section 70 houses the power source 30, as well as and the control unit 40. Access to the control section 70 is accomplished by removing the cap 20.

Illustrated in FIG. 4 is a lubrication sack 51. The lubrication sack 51, in this embodiment is shown as being toroidally or donut-shaped. The lubrication sack 51 is made of a thin plastic pliable material. The lubrication sack 51 would be sufficiently strong such that it would contain the lubrication 50 during packaging, shipping and storing, whether installed in the vibrator, or packaged and stored as a refill kit. The lubrication sack 51 would be constructed such that it would not degrade over time. It would also be constructed from a material that would not degrade from exposure to chemicals used to create the lubrication 50. It is intended that the lubrication sack 51 be a refill kit, wherein when emptied, the empty container or sack would be discarded and replaced with a new lubrication sack.

In this embodiment of the invention, the lubrication sack 51 is installed in the vibrator 10, by placing it over the nose end 114 of the vibrator housing 10 until it comes in contact with the surface 116 of the vibrator housing 12 and then by sliding the end cap 112 along a longitudinal axis over both the nose end 114 and the over the outside diameter of the lubrication sack 51 until the threads of the end cap come in contact with the threads 13 of the vibrator housing. After the threads of the end cap engage with the threads of the vibrator house the end cap 112 is then screwed onto the vibrator housing 12. The lubrication sack is therefore contained on its outer circumferential side by the end cap 112 and its inner circumferential side by the vibrator housing 114. The two outer disc shaped vertical sides of the lubrication sack 51 vibrator are squeezed in-between the interior surface 118 of the end cap 110 and the outer surface 116 of the vibrator housing 12. As the end cap 112 is tightened onto the vibrator housing 12 the lubrication or liquid containing sack 51 contacts the lancing tubes 53. As the squeezing pressure increases, the lancing tubes 53 pierce small holes 120 in the lubrication sack. The lancing tubes 53 enter the lubrication sack 51 and come into direct contact with the lubrication 50. As the user tightens the end cap 12 by screwing it clock-wise the increasing pressure of the lubrication 50 results in the flow of lubrication 50 from inside the lubrication sack 51 through the lancing tubes 53 and into the lubricant tubes 58, 56, 54 and ports 38, 36, 34.

In operation, when the user desires to disperse more lubricate 50 into the vibration cavity 63, it is accomplished by merely rotating the end cap 112 in a clockwise direction, which squeezes more lubricant out of the lubricant sack 51 and disperses into the vibration cavity. In this embodiment of the invention the independently controlled vibration of the different sections 14, 16, and 18 is controlled as previously described.

Accordingly, the present invention has been developed to provide greater independent control over several features that are dispersed along a longitudinal axis of the elongated massage device 10.

While the methods and processes described in the present invention have proven to be particularly useful in the area of massages, those skilled in the art can appreciate that the device and methods can be used in a variety of different applications and in a variety of areas of the human anatomy to yield improvements in sensory stimulation.

It is understood that the above-described embodiments are only illustrative of the application of the principles of the present invention. The present invention may be embodied in other specific forms without departing from its spirit or essential characteristics. The described embodiment is to be considered in all respects only as illustrative and not restrictive. The scope of the invention is, therefore, indicated by the appended claims rather than by the foregoing description. All changes which come within the meaning and range of equivalency of the claims are to be embraced within their scope.

Additionally, although the figures illustrate only a single design for the control panel, one skilled in the art will realize that there are an infinite number of control panel designs that can be used. For example, the panel could be oblong, rounded, different names, different locations for features, etc.

It is also envisioned that the illustrated embodiment of the divisions between the sections of the massager 10 could be most any known design. The main point of the division designs is to dampen the effect from one section to the next. For example, vibration in the middle has little effect on the nose and rear sections. However, it is known that there will be some impact between sections, but having reduced effect is the practical goal. It is also contemplated to not utilize any multiple segment or division to achieve a uniform vibration along the cavity.

In yet another embodiment, the massager 10 could include a replaceable pressurized container of lubricant wherein the amount of lubricant that is dispensed into the cavity 63 is controlled by the central control module 70.

Additionally, it is intended that this method and system of massage is not limited in size or in application. For example, the illustrated embodiment could be so designed to encompass or extend to the massaging of an arm, leg, foot, toe, finger or the like with a purpose of muscle relaxation.

While the present invention has been fully described above with particularity and detail in connection with what is presently deemed to be the most practical and preferred embodiment of the invention, it will be apparent to those of ordinary skill in the art that numerous modifications, including, but not limited to, variations in size, materials, shape, form, function and manner of operation, assembly and use may be made, without departing from the principles and concepts of the invention as set forth in the claims. Further, it is contemplated that an embodiment may be limited to consist of or to consist essentially of one or more of the features, functions, structures, methods described herein.
